About Our Services:

With a Senior Management team with over 30 years combined IT Recruitment experience in permanent and contract markets, the company has been established since March 2003.
The last … five years have been an exciting and challenging time for all concerned in the business. The Directors of the business (Nick and Fran) started the business together, with just the two of them, a PC, two telephones and a very capable office manager (Fiona).
Our aim. To build a recruitment business that did not suffer from the limitations of working in a larger agency or agency Franchise. We wanted to be able make business decisions quickly, negotiate freely, offer bespoke services to both clients and candidates without being restricted by commercial imperatives or previously held professional prejudices. We wanted to move in and out of the markets with energy and focus – which is difficult to do in many other agencies that can be restricted by location, vertical markets or commercial guidelines that minimum fees should be X, Y or Z.
We also wanted to build a team around us that not only shared in this vision but could help take the business to the next level. We hoped at the beginning to be able to find the next Nick and Fran that would see the company grow. Five years on – we have a room full of them. Our greatest achievement as a recruitment business in the last five years is that we have managed to trade in this way and have grown the business to over 25 recruiters who do not operate as corporate robots – but as intelligent, professional, dynamic, entrepreneurial and focussed individuals that can operate in this highly competitive market and month in and month out surpass our clients, candidates and business targets.
Our business is now in an incredibly strong position. Turnover in 2008 will exceed the £10 million mark with projected growth of 50% in 2009. Our candidate’s database has over 200,000 active and fully profiled IT professionals on it, and is growing by thousands each week. Our client’s portfolio base is in the thousands, of which we have preferred supplier status with over 300 clients that we regularly have business dealing with. We hope this web site gives you an understanding of our services and how we have come about. But we do believe in complete lines of communication here at JBA; at any time during business hours you will be able to speak with one of the directors, Nick Beckett or Francis Jones and you can discuss any of the points we have touched upon in more detail.more »
